2. You can never have too many treats.
3. Passing gas in public is nothing to be ashamed of.
4. New shoes are an absolute necessity every 6 weeks.
5. Ignore cues. They're just a prompt to do more work.
6. Everyone loves a good, wet, slobbery kiss.

8. Heaven is eating for at least 10 hours a day... and then sleeping the rest.
10. Eat plenty of roughage.

There was this zebra who had lived her entire life in a zoo and was getting a bit old, so the zoo keeper decided, as a treat, that she could spend her final years in bliss on a farm. The zebra was so excited to see this huge space with green grass and hill and trees and all these strange animals. She saw a big fat weird looking brown thing and ran up to it all excited,
"Hi! I'm a zebra what are you?" "I'm a cow" said the cow. "Right, right what do you do?" "I make milk for the farmer" "Cool."
The zebra then saw this funny looking little white thing and ran over to it:
"Hi, I'm a zebra what are you?" "I'm a chicken," said the chicken. "Oh, right, what do you do ?" "I make eggs for the farmer" "Right... Oh, great see ya round."
Then the zebra saw this very handsome beast that looked almost exactly like her without the stripes. She ran over to it and said:
"Hi, I'm a zebra what are you?" "I am a Stallion," said the stallion. "Wow," said the zebra. "What do you do?"
"Take off your pyjamas darling and I'll show you."
